Two years of a high school world language or one year of college-level world language or demonstrated proficiency in the elementary level of a language other than English, sufficient to enroll in an intermediate level course, is required for admission to SAS.

You are required to take a placement test in the language you studied in high school or otherwise have a background or proficiency in upon entrance to the School of Arts and Sciences. Students may choose to begin study of a new language, or continue study at the level of their placement. Questions about proficiency or placement levels should be directed to that world language department’s undergraduate advisor.
